      The first article in my series on investing in 2025 I am a veteran, and I have made 8% cumulative gains since opening an account in early 2021. I'm also new to global brokerage, having just started a few years ago. Like I didn't know about the 3700, 3400, CSI 300 and the CSI 300, I had little idea about the Nasdaq, Dow and Australian indexes, and I hadn't studied the Hang Seng specifics. For beginners to invest, start with the macro. China is deflationary and the United States is divided after inflation; China and the United States focus on resolving the economic structure of their own issues. Looking at the economic cycle, we may still be in the old cycle, as shown in Figure 1. Looking at the political cycle, there are many elections in 2024. As we can see in Figure 2, important economies

      GOLD: Bullish Rally Here!

      Hello everyone! Today i want to share some macro analysis with you!1.TECHNICAL: Gold's decline stopped at $2656.7 as it reached the 38.2% Fibonacci correction level of the rise from $2596.10 to $2697.7, starting a bullish rally and resuming its bullish trajectory on an intraday basis on the way to test $2700 as the first positive target.

Today's trading range is expected to be between the $2,655 support level and the $2,695 resistance level. Trend Forecast: Bullish (Hold Buy trade on trade) Strategy: BUY:2663-2665

      My Investing Muse (06Jan2025) Layoffs & Closure news "The Tech industry witnessed a 42% decline in layoffs compared to 2023, which saw the highest number of job cuts in the last four years. Over 260,000 employees were handed pink slips by over 1,200 companies this year. The spate of layoffs in 2023 was driven by factors such as economic downturn, considering rising inflation and interest rates. The eventual decrease in consumer spending hit the tech industry which relies heavily on their demand for its products and services. Some other key reasons that prompted companies to cut jobs were the stock market downturn, shifting market dynamics, and largely the over-hiring spree during the pandemic."

By comparison, the US, Japan and Europe accounted for 14%, 20% and 32% of production in 2000, respectively. China has taken over the global car market.
